Product Evaluation

A message from GROW Nebraska® Founder & CEO Janell Anderson Ehrke

Thank you for your interest in the 2008 GROW Nebraska Product Evaluation Session. The product evaluation is one of GROW Nebraska’s™ most valuable services. Please note you do not need to be a GROW Nebraska™ member to participate in the evaluation. GROW Nebraska™ assembles a panel that consists of five industry experts. In past years, GROW Nebraska™ has been able to document that the judges have purchased over $15,000 worth of product from seeing it in this jury process.

We would like to stress that the product evaluation can be of great benefit to your business, even if you only sell retail. The goal is to provide you with suggestions on how you may improve your product or where you should be selling your product. The result of the product evaluation is to add to your business’s bottom line and increase your income. Product evaluation fees are $15 for members and $25 for non-members. There are a variety of forms needed for participation; we are including a checklist to assist you in completing your application.

If you have any questions regarding the product evaluation process or have questions regarding the judge’s comments, please contact GROW Nebraska™. The actual jury session is closed to all participating businesses, only the products and judges are allowed in the room with an outside independent evaluator. This allows the judges to remain anonymous, and to freely and honestly write down their suggestions and opinions. Many businesses have greatly benefited from these comments.

"The product evaluation helped steer me in the right direction with a few manageable ideas regarding packaging. When an artist focuses so much on his or her work, sometimes the important details, like labels and brochures that show the work, tend to be overlooked. I appreciate the opportunity to have professionals in the Gift Market offer their first impression of my product, since a first impression is what will sell my cards to customers!"
-Ranell Otte, Ottestry
